- John Donne is an Academy Primary School. Our main aims at John Donne Primary School are to enable all pupils: To improve on their previous best. To be happy in school and to find pleasure in learning. To live in an ethos of fairness, honesty, and mutual respect among all members of the school community. To develop self-discipline and a positive self-image. To be prepared for the next stage in their academic career and life. We are happy about the awards: "Healthy Schools", "International School Award". We taught about healthy eating, across all of the year groups, in both classes and assemblies. We ran healthy food events, enabling the children to create healthy recipes and food. The school travel plan was updated annually, and through this, we have been able to provide bicycle racks for both staff and students throughout the school. The school promoted Walk On Wednesdays (WOW), encouraging children to walk with their parents and carers to school. The children were given badges and stickers for participation. Children gain more exercise from walking to school. They are happier and more alert when they arrive at school, giving them a positive start to the day. All children have an understanding of what it means to be healthy and can make healthier choices, both inside and outside of school time. Because of the Travel Plan, the traffic outside the school gates has been slowed down, using a rise in the road, and no paring lines and signs have been added, to create a safer entrance for the children. Pupil Health and Well-Being are important to us at John Donne Academy and we are proud to collaborate around this theme with London South Bank University, Alfred Salter Primary School, Club Pulse Goldsmiths, and universities and schools in Greece and Gran Canaria. This is part of our 2-year Erasmus+ partnership project work, supported by the EU. We achieved the International School Award thanks to the help of the wonderful community we have around our school. As we are a very multicultural school we are very fortunate to be able to share this. The children are more aware that there is a larger world outside of their immediate community and can respect all different cultures. They are interested in finding out more about these cultures and comparing them to their own. Our topic is: "‘Transport’. The children will be learning about different types of transport and ways to travel in the world around us. Each week we will focus on different ways to get around, focussing on transport in our local environment, sea travel, and travel by air. Children now have an Independent Learning project book. A project book is a place for your child to draw and write, following their interests or if you prefer, to follow our theme of ‘Transport’. View full school
